The BMW Caulfield Cup Carnival is synonymous with first class racing and fashion, but now it will also be known for first class musical entertainment.

With a sharp, streamlined new look, a fresh sense of adventure and, most importantly, a thoroughly reinvigorated sound, the return of Sneaky Sound System is without doubt one of the most exciting things to happen to pop music this year.

Sneaky Sound System will perform on The Age Caulfield Guineas Day, Saturday, 8th October in the Fashion and Entertainment Precinct. The world renowned band will bring a huge day of racing to a grand finale, playing after the final race.
